Join us for our inaugural DoES Pub Quiz!
There will be bad prizes, convoluted rules that may or may not be made up on the fly, and the warm happy feeling you get from supporting DoES. And me. I have kids I should be looking after rather than finding out the worldwide gross of Gremlins 2.
Also! We’ll have alcohol available and will graciously allow you to bring food in.
So come along, learn some stuff and potentially win the right to laud your superior intellect over everyone else which, when we get right down to it, is all anyone really ever wants.
Doors at 7pm, starting at 8pm (ish), £5 per team (max. 5 people to a team).

Repair cafe at DoES Liverpool
2026-07-19 11:00 - 15:00
For those of you who have not been to a Repair Cafè, this is a mostly free service where you can bring in broken items and get them repaired, only paying for any parts that are used in the repair.
You are welcome to come on the day with an item for repair or to help with the repairs. We can cope with many kinds of repair, such as electrical and electronic items, bikes, furniture, computers, clothes and fabric alterations.

You can make a contribution to your repair here via DoEs Liverpool.

Why It Matters

Environmental benefits: Repair cafés help extend the life of products, which reduces waste and the need for new resources and manufacturing. For example, in the Farnham case they estimated a significant CO₂ saving.
Skill-sharing & community building: They provide venues for people to share repair knowledge, reducing isolation and building community ties. The movement links technical fix-skills with social connection.
Behaviour change and culture shift: Repair cafés challenge the mindset of “if it’s broken, throw it away, buy new”. They promote “fix it, learn to fix, reuse” instead.
Economic/financial benefits: They help people save money (by repairing rather than replacing) and reduce disposal costs and waste.
What Happens at a Repair Café – Typical Features
Volunteers (often with backgrounds in electronics, sewing, woodwork, mechanical repair) staff stations where visitors bring items. Owners participate, ask questions, learn.
The items repaired vary widely: electrical and electronic goods (radios, lamps, small appliances), clothing/textiles, furniture, jewellery, toys, clocks, etc.
It’s usually free or based on donations; the idea is accessibility for all. Some parts may be charged if needed, but the labour is volunteer.
Workshops are often monthly

Liverpool MakeFest is returning this year. It will be held on Sunday September 13th at The Tapestry Building in Liverpool City Centre, it’s completely free to enter but what exactly is it you’re probably wondering. Well, that’s a good question.
Liverpool MakeFest is a free annual one day celebration of arts, science, technology and the wonderful things that people make. We have exhibitors from all over the country and we’ve been running since 2015. Each year people come together to share ideas, collaborate and display some of the amazing things they’ve made. From lace makers to high tech robotics and everything in between. It’s great for kids, there’s loads to see and do. We want to inspire the next generation of creatives and makers to unleash their imagination and get stuck in.
There’s something for everyone, it’s on all day and we’d love you to come along. You don’t need to buy tickets, it’s completely free and open to all. So come down and have a wander around our stalls, meet the makers and chat about your ideas. We’ve been running for over 10 years and during that time thousands of people have attended, finding amazing things to see and do for all the family.
So don’t forget, Sunday September 13th at The Tapestry building on Kempston Street, Liverpool City Centre. We look forward to welcoming you!
